Cardona Herd, Doune home of stunning Angus and now Riggit Galloway cattle

This heifer as a yearling absolutely at 12 O'clock and a credit to Ewen McRobert Herd Manager

Bred from a red Riggit Galloway bull bred at TwoMills and has done some wonderful work in two herds back in Scotland now

TwoMills Black Diamond, a super Riggit Galloway sold as a heifer to Robbie Galloway’s Cardona Herd at Doune

Herd Manager Ewen McRobert has done her well - photo sent to me by his wife Sharon

Loving the frame and the classic Riggit markings ; white tear drops and rear flank diamonds

Essex (Saddleback) pigs had narrower belts and pink lower back legs whereas the Wessex Saddleback had a broader belt and totally black back legs. A sad day when they became amalgamated as the "British Saddleback"

Another bit of my Essex "roots"

Just like the plate photos in one of my treasured farming books
